Canon EOS Rebel Xti aka 400D insights
Posted by tekgik under kaBlog
It has landed here in the Philippines, the Canon 400D, 350D’s successor.
Its now in my hands, the 400D for field testing and review. Watch out for the in depth review in the coming days while I test this new baby from Canon.
Well for the meantime here are some initial impressions of the camera.
The EOS 400D is virtually identical from its predecessor EOS 350D. Size, weight and handling are almost the same. It has improved ergonomics thus giving the user a more stable grip. There are three significant features that are worth noting, the bigger LCD, ICS (Integrated Cleaning System), and picture styles which is one of my favorite. LCD is much brighter than the 5D and 30D. Integrated Cleaning System was one of the intriguing features and yet i dont know if this new technology works well i can conclude that after i complete this review.
Anyway here are some quickie snaps that i made from picking up the unit until i got home 
These are untouched images, only cropping and resizing.

[...] Just as we have posted links to sample photos from this camera, the camera is now officially here in the Philippines and sent for review to media people as well as prominent Canon users. One lucky guy is pinoyphotography.org’s Regie Fernando who has just posted sample photos and his initial insights on the camera in http://www.pinoyphotography.org/forum/index.php?topic=8141.0 and on his weblog. [...]
[...] Looking closely on the photos though, you would notice that despite the almost negligible adjustment in dimension, the grip appears larger than it was before. The rear part has been made thicker by extending the CF card cover, and the front part has a small bulge in the middle but tapers at the bottom. Our observations should be correct, as early reviewers have reported better handling with the new body, as reported on Imaging Resource as well as Tekgik’s insights. Will this help in making the camera appeal more to a larger audience? What do you think? Filed in Links, News [...]
